The ark was 'Dedicated to the children of Whitby, our most cherished asset and to our sportsminded citizens. Our aim, better citizens tomorrow. from the youth of today." So states the two plaques adorning the impressive stone and wrought iron gates that stand on the northern boundary of the park. The gateway itself is ob- viously situated on the wrong side of the park and: appears to offer entry into the school play- ing field rather: than entry to the park, which has access only from Walnut street on the sou- thern perimeter. The park is separated from the school grounds by a six-foot chain link fence. The fence, which has only recently been erected has been the cause of much' controversy. At the June 17 council meet- ing, Parks Committee Cnhair- man, Councilk Joyce Burns moved that a/6ix-foot chain link fence be ergcted on the north- ern bounddry of Coronation Park and that the tender of Whitby Hardware Ltd. for $1,164 be accepted. Councillor William Davidson seconded the motion which was carried five to four.

There are no benches to sit on or even a shady tree to sit under, In short, the park exists in name only. It has now n in existence for more n 10 years and the Town has not lived up to the noble words in- inseribed on the dedication plaques, If there was a need to erect a boundary fence between park and the school grounds, August Permits Total $174,967 Building permits Whitby for the month of August ype pre re wine was residential ani 617} commercial. @ THEORY Residential. building saw 10) new dwellings to $11,000, one apartment building valued at $30,000, and additions to present! buildings $19,650.

In due course $1,164 of the taxpayers money was spent to erect the fence. The question is, was the fence erected as a boundary marker, or is it there to keep our children out of the park, for whom it was origin- ally intended? There is certainly no evidence to suggest that the park is kept THE WHITBY MINOR LACROSSE ASSOCIATION PRESENTS THE 1963 ALL-ONTARIO NOVICE LACROSSE TOURNAMENT SAT., SEPT. 7-- WHITBY ARENA 20 TEAMS!
